Aldi & Lidl #7

[Carefree]

Has anyone had any of the Aldi premixed cocktails either cans or any of the ones in bottles (Pina colada etc) and are they any good?

The G&T ones, non-sweetener versions, are lovely and they've got fun classic sweets flavours in cider. The bubble gum one is recommended. It's not life changing but the blue colour delighted me.

Are these frickles in the fridge or freezer section?

 

[Boogs]

Yes. We have it. Not sure ok the comparison but I would buy it again for what it is

I think it’s a good dupe but I’ve been to 2 different Lidl stores and they didn’t have any. I’ll keep persevering!

 

[DontQuoteMe]

Yes! Omg loved it. Now I’m tempted to go get one for this week. The chorizo mac n cheese is amazing too. I have been known to have half of each one together as a meal

Is this Aldi or Lidl? Both sound amazing!

Dafuq is ‘coastal’ cheddar when it’s at home?

Cheddar the place is inland.

Looks like Aldi have a beauty drop next week, some dupes of Le Labo fragrances (looks very similar) coming out Thursday and on Sunday 9th there is a big drop including skin care , hair masks etc etc..

Where can you see this, please Lou? I looked on the app and it was all oul gardening stuff !

 

[bunnylass]

It was me and I just came on to say the have disappeared here

On Wed they still had in mine (East Mids)

Is it this one ? It’s on special buy in Aldi for £3.19 at the min. View attachment 3417120

That's it!! Thank you, I'll nip over tomorrow

 

[Toffee finger]

I'm not sure if I'll have time before leaving tomorrow but does the UK Lidl have trail mix, with the smarties, or is it just Ireland? Google isn't helping me here

I buy quite a lot of nuts/trail mix packs from UK Lidl and never noticed any with smarties in. I want them now though!

The Morrisons more card in my local Morrisons (not sure if it's others as well) is down so people on Facebook saying it's a conspiracy to make people pay more as they can't get the more card prices

The Morrisons issue seems to be nationwide although I have read it is okay now

 

[unwanted.opinions]

Don’t you just love the old Facebook conspiracy theorists? Has to be a conspiracy about everything. My mum went this morning & got an email later on tonight they have compensated her with roughly £10 in points (which is more than she would’ve saved today) and also given her 10% of her
total shopping bill if she goes back in tomorrow.

Someone put a post on my local spotted page they got 10% off last night. The way it was worded seemed like they didn’t go in earlier that day

 

[IfTheCapFits]

Is there a shortage of Guatemalan ground coffee elsewhere? First world problem i know, but it's my favourite! hasn't been any in the 2 Lidl near me for ages, lots of the other varieties, I'll have to resort to buying off ebay/amazon at inflated prices if I can't find any soon.
Can't find similar in Tesco, do any of the others do anything comparable?

 

[Tangent Tiger]

We were discussing ice creams a while back...Lidl have definitely changed their offerings!

In the dry mixed foodstuff aisle they have roasted and salted snack mix with macadamia, gorgeous. The walnuts taste almost caramelised

 

[Boogs]

I've been to 3 lidls and none had the Lush dupes, are they only in stores in certain areas?

They didn’t seem to have been in at the store I went to yesterday, no gaps where they had been sold out. I’m going to try another one today.

 

[sevcive]

Aldi's knock off Lucozade Sport is an absolute bargain compared to the real stuff.

 

[pecan]

Any recs for a nice red wine in Aldi please?

 

[ohdoris]

I'm currently using that. I was looking forward to it, but I think I prefer the Superdrug one in the blue container.

I love the Superdrug one & it’s always on offer. I really like their B skincare range, i use a few things from it.

 

[Skinnydogs]

is this aldi or Lidl?

I bought them from Aldi

 

[Chocolategoggler]

That is nice jam from M & S but the Seedless Raspberry one is my favourite plus the Sicilian Lemon Curd.

I'd forgotten about the Sicilian lemon curd

 

[Mamacita]

Has anyone tried the high protein ice cream tubs from Lidl? I'm really craving peanut butter ice cream (RIP the Haagen Dazs one) and that's the only one I've found. I went through a Halo Top phase when they first came out, but they are just pumped full of air and junk really, so I'd rather try to avoid similar.

If you don't like halo top then I don't think the Lidl's one will appeal to you either. Not really sure what you mean by junk and air

I like Aldi chocolate brownie one for low kcal ice creams
